Topic: Dictionary item details stuck...

Bit of a strange one.  The dictionary items details pane in the Taxon Dictionary Browser is currently stuck minimised.  The button in the toolbar still allows it to be toggled on and off, but even when on, it isn't visible - it's like it's been minimised by dragging the edge of the pane.  The cursor changes like it's going to let the pane be widened, but nothing actually moves.

Has anyone else come across this and managed to get the items details pane back?  As it can be toggled on and off, I'm assuming any minimisation by edge dragging was unintentional and can't imagine it's happened to a lot of people!

Thanks for any ideas :D

Hi

I have managed to duplicate this but as yet not undo. I am sure I have seen it before and there is a trick to getting it back. Will try to find the answer.

Hi

See https://forums.nbn.org.uk/viewtopic.php?id=500

It requires a registry change.

- close Recorder
- start - run - regedit
- open HKEY_CURRENT_USER -> SOFTWARE -> DORSET SOFTWARE -> RECORDER 6 -> FORMS -> TaxonDictionaryBrowser 
-  Modify the splitter position by changing it to Decemal 50


Hope you can do this.
